Arrival at School The school opens at 8:00 a.m. for school drop-off. We are unable to accommodate earlier drop-offs as there is no adult supervision before this time. Important Telephone Numbers Main Office - 508-879-2290 Telephone Main Office - Fax 508-788-3560 Nurse 508-782-7832 Medical Fax 508-788-0481 Principal/AP 508-879-2290 Framingham Public Schools Superintendent of Schools 508-626-9117 Transportation Office 508-626-9179 School Committee Office 508-626-9121 Parent Information Center 508-424-3420 Food Services 508-626-9109 Child Safety Safety of all students is the top priority of all staff at Cameron. All doors are locked at Cameron School, staff have specialized fobs that allow them to enter and exit the school. All staff that are outside with children, in addition to all support, administration, and office staff, carry walkie talkies with them at all times. A safety plan is reviewed with the Framingham Police every year and with all Cameron staff. Mandated Reporting It is helpful for parents to understand that school personnel are mandated reports and are legally obligated to file a Section 51A with child protective services for any suspicion of child abuse or neglect. For more information, go online to: http://www.malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartI/TitleXVI/Chapter119/Section School Visitors Cameron is a secure campus. All doors are locked during the school day. All visitors must use the buzzer and camera system located at the front door to enter. Everyone who enters the building must first sign-in at the main office. Visitors receive a visitor/volunteer badge to wear during their visit. This is a safety issue, and all adults, no matter how frequently they visit Cameron, are asked to follow this policy. Field Trips All field trips are decided upon and scheduled by grade level teams. All volunteers for field trips must complete a CORI check through Framingham Public Schools. At least two weeks is needed to complete the CORI check. Volunteers should go to the office for information and a form. In the past, PTO has partially funded some field trips. PTO is always willing to give scholarships to cover field trip costs for students in need. COMMUNICATION If there is a situation at home that might affect your child, please let the teacher, school counselor or administrator know. Adjustments and extra consideration can be given to your child if we understand what he/she is experiencing. Some common situations are the death or serious illness of a family member, the death of a pet, parent business travel, etc. We want to support your child, so please keep us informed. If parents are concerned with any school-related issues, they should first discuss the matter with the teacher involved. X2 Family Portal is the student information system used by the Framingham Public School System. Families will have a unique login to access their children’s information (i.e. attendance, grades, schedule, contact information, etc.). It is the parent’s responsibility to maintain accurate contact information at all times. Blackboard ConnectEd is our Community Outreach and Emergency Communication system. It allows us to contact you immediately, effectively, and efficiently by phone or email should we have the need. It is critical that you provide the school office with current contact information in September and to update the information should there be any change during the course of the school year. 6th grade: guidance counselor, Carol Brennan A-K([email protected] ) ​ ​ 7th grade: guidance counselor, Carol Brennan ([email protected]) ​ ​ Eileen Stark-Glassman L-Z ([email protected]) ​ ​ 8th grade: guidance counselor, Eileen Stark-Glassman ([email protected]) ​ ​ Additionally, Principal Michelle Melick is available ([email protected]) , ​ ​ Assistant Principal Ken Hamm is available.
